Hi Angelo, what would be the best way of distributing the fixed layout epub?. Any suggestion?

[@AngeloMontilla]

There are various ways. Because this is a document, you can email it just like you would a PDF. Another good idea is adding it to your website as a downloadable link. The idea is to get people to open it the same way they would a PDF.

[@rush2004]

Yes, I have similar ideas but I think emailing 5 - 10MB attachment is a bit to large. I guess downloading would be a better options. Which reader is best for Fixed layout epub if I am using PC?

[@AngeloMontilla]

@@rush2004 Agree, you'd have to compress the file or send via cloud/drive link. As far as epub for PC, the best one I have encountered is called Caliber.

[@rush2004]

Thanks Angello - just wondering if u plan to do a video the best way for Fixed layout epub distributions and viewing via a recommanded reader? Don't worry of the production as u have many of these already. Thanks.

Hi Angelo… the quality of your tutorials are tremendous. I am drinking all of them so much there are interesting. I learned a lot with you and i want say thank you by buying a course from you. So my question is: I want create a brand guidelines or style guide, but I can tell that u don’t have a tutorial on that topic but do u have a paid one on that or if not, what course available do u have please ?

[@AngeloMontilla]

Hi Skott! I currently don't have a course based on this, but thank you so much for the suggestion. I only started building courses the last couple months and am currently working on my second. My course that is live now is Intro to Digital Publishing in InDesign.

[@skottmellins4584]

@@AngeloMontilla Thank you so much for your response. Could you exceptionally provide a coupon code for me please in order to buy this course please ? Because yes, even though it's not apple to apple what I want, I'm pretty sure to learn a lot. Thank you by advance

Do these types of interactive features work if files are saved as interactive PDFs? if not, what type of interaction do you find is maintained on interactive PDFs? Thanks so much for this helpful tutorial. :)

[@AngeloMontilla]

Thanks for the question! Unfortunately, no it will not work for Interactive PDF. Instead, use InDesign's Publish Online or export for EPub (Fixed Layout) and view the project in an e-reader like Apple Books.

[@benosborne413]

Great. How will i let people read that on Windows or Android?

[@bilitschien3895]

You are just amazing! Thank you again! Btw I have a request 😅 can you maybe make a video about creating a nice portfolio? That would be awesome!

[@AngeloMontilla]

Great suggestion! Thanks for the idea.

[@AngeloMontilla]

Thank you Lee!

[@masah89]

nice one, I need to ask is there a way to do this for pdf files

[@georgiaw1908]

You can export it and save it as an interactive pdf

[@davidlongman1266]

Is it possible to save this as a PDF to send over email?

[@AngeloMontilla]

Hi David. This is an HTML embed code, so it won't work for PDF unfortunately.

[@infographicseller4987]

Quality work

[@AngeloMontilla]

Thanks!

[@markorn]

Does this works for export to an interactive pfd? how can i make it work as interactive pdf?

[@AngeloMontilla]

No, you can't embed HTML into an interactive PDF. The only thing you could do is hyperlink to the map online. Remember, interactive PDF is flash and not much you can do anymore. Even video and audio won't work properly.

Can we embedded Google maps into and export as a high quality PDF for print?

[@AngeloMontilla]

Hi Minh. No, this will not export for PDF because it is not a live image on the page. It is HTML code. You could always take a screen shot of the map and place it as an image if you need it for print.

[@Nkhmwahl]

May you write your art work size so I can follow up

[@AngeloMontilla]

That is an iPad size: 768px x 1024px

[@niczymaras1894]

Hey Angelo, I'm working on a project that this would be perfect for however once I have my link from G-Maps and I go to Indesign and click object/insert html, the html snippet box pops up for a few seconds then I get a box that says 'Java script error encountered while loading html' ... and goes no further. Have you encountered this or have any idea how I can overcome the error??

[@AngeloMontilla]

Hi Nic. If you're trying to export for PDF, Insert HTML will not be supported for that platform.

[@niczymaras1894]

@@AngeloMontilla Thanks for that. Shame, would have finished off an e-pub very nicely. Great work, love the vids :)
